They like to reinterpret it a lot of the time too.

Yes the bible do have a meaning it tells us what this life is all about it gives us hope to live.Becouse when you look at life it self we see no hope in life.Some people do not take time to study the bible so they end up with different meaning of the bible.

You are wrong in your assumption. Christians do not say that the Bible means what we want it to mean. Obviously it must say something that you do not like. Your statement that the Bible has no meaning at all is more of an emotional attack than anything that shows thought.

The Bible doesn't mean what you want it to mean. It means what God wrote it to mean. It is the meaning of life.

Have you heard the expression: "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"? Well, with the Bible, the meaning is interpreted by the Reader.

Actually that is not what real Christians say. We say that many only use select verses to make the Bible say what they want it to say. We need to take all of the Bible and believe it as GOD wrote it...not to twist it to make it say what we want to hear.

Those who lean unto there own understanding of scripture are leading others astray and blinded by their "pride!" But this has to occur for the Kingdom of God is coming to this earth and establish His way as the only way.
Pride is man's downfall. The End of the circle of man's self rule will be the beginning of Christ's Kingdom but that "pride" must be broken first!

The Bible is what it is. You can overinterpret it, like the people who throw quotes at you. Or you can just appreciate it for its general good will.

They'll twist and turn the Bible to justify their beliefs, not the other way around.

They hate the word 'interpret', but that's exactly what they do with the bible.
